Key Components

  • Virtual inventory management for optimal supply control of your items across all sales channels.
  • Optimal multichannel online marketing through maintenance of channel-specific product information such as individual article names, prices, description texts and images.
  • Internationalization: Customize description text, language, prices, tax rates and currency for each channel.
  • Matching your product groups/categories with the specific marketplace categories.
  • Complex handling of variant and multi-variant articles – even different for each channel.
  • Import/Export via XML, CSV, Bmecat, OpenTrans.
  • Transmission and mapping of attributes and attribute values ​​with the marketplaces.

With the interface for supplier data, you can seamlessly connect external data sources to your brickfox system. It doesn't matter whether it's pure product data from a manufacturer or supplier, or comprehensive inventory and availability information including purchasing conditions. This data is brought together and consolidated in your brickfox software. brickfox thus makes an efficient and cost-effective contribution to the integration of your supply chain partners.

The supplier interface integrates both external partners and important internal company areas. Its flexibility in terms of the number of interfaces contributes to holistic online supply chain management.

  • Connections to any number of product ranges
  • Connections to different warehouses (internal & external)
  • Product data import and consolidation from multiple suppliers
  • Import of inventory figures & availability
  • Transmission of complete product information by specifying the EAN from available industry databases, e.g. Prodanet
  • Automation of all processes
  • Connection to numerous online shops with their own layout and domain
  • Central, shop-independent product data management for all shops
  • Different assortments, prices, offers, etc. for each shop
  • international trade through flexible choice of language, currency and VAT rate
  • Cross-shop inventory management (minimum stock, maximum stock, virtual stock)
  • Control of multiple ERP systems and/or clients
  • In principle, any shop system can be connected via the brickfox shop interface. The prerequisite for this is that your online shop supports the exchange of XML files (via FTP/SFTP).

With brickfox's real-time performance reporting, you can always keep track of your successes on the sales channels. You can create detailed standard evaluations for the global overview or specifically for each sales channel. Configure individual evaluations to find out, for example, which (partial) range recorded which sales, generated which turnover and which return rate in which promotional period on which marketplace.

Channel performance: Receive a daily analysis of your shop and marketplace sales. KPIs such as average shopping cart sizes or return rates are automatically calculated and displayed graphically and in tabular form.

Product group analysis: Analyse the sales of specific product groups in a targeted manner. Trend analyses show you how product ranges are developing. Relevant key figures at product group level, such as cancellation and return rates, support channel-specific product range management.

Article research: Track sales in detail by sales channel and even by brand. Analyze important key figures down to variant level. Export data conveniently via Excel for further processing in third-party systems.
